Andy Update

Thanks to all of you who have been asking about Andy. He is currently in Kabul for a few more days and then he will be heading about 25 miles South to a post called Shank. The Corps of Engineers isn't actually established in Shank yet and Andy will be in charge of getting their office there all set up and running. It seems like a pretty intimidating job, but I know that Andy will do so well. He also had the opportunity to attend some church meetings while he has been in Kabul. Its amazing where you can find the church, and we are so grateful that there are members over in Afghanistan. Andy was actually set apart as the Serviceman's group leader for the Shank post. I am so excited for him to be able to serve in the church while still deployed. He was told that there are a total of 9 members of the church in Shank, including himself. Here is a picture of Andy and a couple of others from the Branch in Kabul. Thanks to all of you for your thoughts and prayers, we know they are making a difference for us.


On a side note, I have been trying to keep myself busy while I am here in Idaho. I am going to start dabbling in some sewing projects, as soon as I can get penciled into my moms busy schedule. She will have to practice a lot of patience in teaching me to sew, but I am confident that I am going to get it down. I have also been trying to decorate my room here at my parents house and decided that I would frame some more of Andy and my wedding pictures to hang up. I love the way our 10x10s turned out!


And lastly, I couldn't resist sharing this picture. Noah is usually very patient while I do my morning workout..this morning while swinging, I looked over and saw this, I guess watching me exercise isn't that exciting!
